THE STATE OF TRADE.
II G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review Dis
cusses tho Subject at Length.

r G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review Dis
cusses tho Subject at Length.
NEW YORK, May 13-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review says great revolution in
business is going on with radically con-
fiicting accounts Of serious losses at some
localities and in some branches, and of
wonderful gain at other places, or in
other departments of trade and industry.
The difficulty of reaching just conclusions
respecting the general tendency is much
enhanced, The Interstate act is but one OF
several causes which contribute to pro-
duce this revolution to commerce.
Depression in the volume and change in
the kind of currency is another and not
less important cause. The most uneX-
pected results are produced. The inter-
state act clearly helps some who bitterly
oppose it, and as clearly Injuries others
| who expected great benefits from its
operation. Thus the river business
of the west is expanding under the in
| fuence of the law, and the railroads are
at the same time getting large earnings
| from the part of the traffic they retain,
! while not q few cities find, as Cincinnati
| does, that trade in many lines is greatly
embarrassed. The general tendency is
disclosed By the urgent demands for the
suspension or change of the law, espe-
cialIy from those who most favored its
enactment. A serious diversion of trade
| from western cities which have been the
| chiefcenteTs of distribution is in progress,
and & multitude of smaller towns are
reaplng the benefit. Western products do
not as a rule gain anything in
eastern markets. If wheat has advanced
! 51 cents since the the act went into effect,
corn and oats have declined a fraction.
| Pork Is about the same price. Lard is
cent lower, hogs ! cents lower, and beef
sells at the same price. Cotton has been
advanced / Of q cent, but this change,
ike the rise in wheat, is clearly specu-
lative, and therefore increased the reac-
ton through curtailment of demand. Rail-
road building is not checked by the act,
and it it is probable that by encouraging
traffic in many instead Of at few centers
OF trade, the law may tend to the build
! ing Of numerous local roads and parallel
rival lines.
A total of 6,524 ,O61 bushels against
| 1852, 975 last week, with 955,260 barrels
of -four against 673, l28 last year, exports
of breadstuff reached S12, 534, 439 in value
against $11, ,9+8 last year, showing
| that comparatively quiet market III IAa1
month favored large shipments, but
prices have since climbed with sales Of
nearly $4,000, 900 bushels in the week aud
exports are checked, while accounts
of seeding showed great increase in The
acreage in Dakota and Minnesota. Cot
ton exports in April were reduced 80 per
cent compared with last year, the price
having risen 16 per cent, while cotton
goods advanced only per cent. The re-
ceipts are now barely quarter those of
last year, but crop prospects are more
favorable. The lumber trade shows an
increase of demand, with 8 scarcity in
some lines.

JEFFERSON DAVIS.
Honors to the Chief of the Elk OOnfeder-
acy at Meridian, Miss.


MERIDIAN, MISS, May l3.-At II
O'Clock yesterday morning public re-
ception was given to Mr.. Jefferson Davis
at the residence of Colonel J. R. McIn-
tosh, where he is stopping. For two
hours perfect stream of people passed
through the parlors and shook hands
with the ex-chieftain and his beautiful
daughter. Mr.. Davis was in his best hui
NOR and had pleasant word for each
one that shook his hand. At 5 O'Clock
last evening banquet and reception was
given in the courthouse grounds. Mr..
Davis made a short address. in which he
thanked the people of Meridian for their
most cordial reception. At this point
the members of the Press Association
sascended the platform in body
and presented their respects to him. At
the banquet there were 500 plates, and
seated at the tables were the most dis
tinguished men of the state. The second
toast was to Jefferson Davis, soldier,
statesman, and champion Of southern
rights" 1t was responded to by Hon.
Thos Il. Wood. When Mr.. Davis rose to
reply he was greeted with long continued
applause. He began by apologiziDg
for the short address he would make
them, and said that he was quite
fatigued from the days exercises. Con,
tinuing he said: 81 am unable to
treat this theme as it should be,
without premeditaton. What was the
army and navy of the south?
It was the patriotism of the persons who
barred their breasts to bullets defending
their constitutional rights, with great
navys and armies against us. We
formed regiments and battalions and at
their head we placed Lee as their com
mander. We remember scenes where
the wife, SIS she threw her arms around
her husband, and the daughters IN loving
embrace, gathering around those that
were to 60, and the widowed mother as
she let tear drops fall on the face of hel
son, girted his sword to his waist
and told him to go forth as his
father would have done. These were
the kind of men we had, but northern
historians never conceded that, and in
dulged in triumphs Of the mind. Wher
these scenes and incidents have passed
and they only live in minds and history
sNf9u will be united. United you are now
taud if the Union is ever to be broken, le
the other side break it. The army OF TIT
south will shine forever around our camp
| fires, and will still shine to our children
and children's children. The truths W.
| fought for shall not encourage you II
ever fight again; but keep your word IL
good or evil. God bless you all"

UNEASY REGARDING THE STATES.

UNEASY REGARDING THE STATES.
OTTAWA, ONT, May 13.-Sir Charles
Upper, minister of finance, speaking in
Parliament, to-day, said the outlook for
Canada was very bright, the only cloud
on the horizon being the threat of nOnin-
tercourse on the part of the United
States. All parties in Canada agreed that
it was the duty of the government to
maintain Capada's admitted rights. Be-
fore accepting s. high cOmmissiOnship ne
(Tupper) visited Washington, and had
long Interview with the late Secretary of
State, Frelinghuysen. He regretted that
the government of which Frelinghuysen
was a member was not returned to
power, not because mis- (Tupper' D. sym
pathies were with either party in the
United States, but because the Demo
cratic administration, with the RepUbi
can majority in the Senate, helps to
carry out any arrangements 1t might
propose. His intercourse with leading
statesmen of Great Britain led him to
believe the Republicans would have
steadily maintained Canada's rights. He
regretted the course the American govern
ment pursued on the fishing question be-
cause the interests of the two countries.
were bound up in the increase of COM
mercial relations and the extension Of
reciprocal arrangements, and it would be
q great misfortune if anything were to
prevent reciprocal trade arrangements
being arrived at. During the past fifty
years the the balance of trade
between the United States and
Canada was $3.50, 900, 900 N favor OF the
United States, and the United States
would be very largely the gamer u1der
any trade system in vogue between the
two countries. If the policy Of non
intercourse were carried out it could be
met by the imperial government d1scrimi-
mating against American ports. Such dis
Grimm .tion would greatly develop the
grain producing industry of Canada. Be
sides this through freight which was
needed, for instance, to build up New
York, Boston and Portland, would al
rive at the Canadian ports
and enormously assist in building them
up. besides aiding the Canadian railways.
He, believed the imposition of duty on
American grain by the imperial govern
ment would not increase the price in
ngland, as with India and Carada in
competition, the price would be kept
down. He hoped and believed that 6
policy of non-intercourse would not be
adopted, but if it we're, the United States
would fnd in Canada = eGple determined
on maintaining their admitted rights.

My hand became raw and horrffyng,
compelling me to keep it covered all the

I've spent hundreds of dollars for various
preparations, but instead of beneftting my
condition, they all seemed to stimulate and
encourage the progress of the miserable dis
ease, until had about given up all hope.
But thanS heaven, " the darkest hour is
just before day" and / am rejoiced to know
that positive cure has been found, which
is known as b. b. B.--Botauic Blood Balm.
